Sartoria Marinaro

In the sixties, Mario Sciales moved to Florence to work as assistant to Michele Marinaro, the owner of the tailor’s shop named after him and started in 1937, of which he became the owner in 1970. Every garment is strictly handmade, according to the dictates of the old tailoring school. The suit is cut on a linen pattern, on which the fabric is then placed to ensure perfect wearability. A personalized pattern is made specifically for each customer. The tailor’s shop has preserved the atmosphere of an earlier time, although it serves a vast clientele of bankers and businessmen from New York City.
